Project management is one of Hammes' defining services. Our teams bring the experience, discipline and healthcare real estate knowledge required to help hospitals and health systems move from project intent to delivery with the right level of leadership, financial stewardship and continuity.

More than Project Management -
Project Leadership

Our project management team is comprised of professionals from design, construction and engineering backgrounds. We are not just experienced with capital programs; we bring deep industry and development knowledge to the work.

Working with healthcare clients through the full project lifecycle gives Hammes the perspective to go beyond on-time and on-budget oversight. We help clients achieve the right strategic project for their market while keeping capital, schedule, clinical operations and opening-day readiness in view.

We understand the overwhelming demands on capital in today’s environment and view being good stewards of our clients’ financial resources as a top priority, acting as though their resources were our own. Hammes often delivers savings that exceed our fee.

Project Management Capabilities

Flexible Project Management Delivery Model

Hammes is focused on providing real value through cost savings and flexible service delivery. We recognize many client partners have strong in-house resources. Our approach is to work collaboratively with clients to provide the right level of support, ranging from full program management to staff augmentation, with the same end goal in mind: helping clients deliver quality, cost-effective patient care.

Owner’s Representation / Program and Project Management

We understand scale. From a single healthcare facility project to a vast expansion program, Hammes serves as a fiduciary and trusted advisor to help healthcare organizations plan, manage and execute capital improvement projects from start to finish.

Owner's Representation
Staff Augmentation

In-house design and construction teams are sophisticated operating units inside a health system. When bandwidth or specialized healthcare project expertise is exceeded, Hammes works as an extension of the client’s team, adding seasoned healthcare project executives to support assigned projects.

Staff Augmentation
PMO Consulting

Determining whether a healthcare organization’s project management office is appropriately structured can be overlooked in the day-to-day work of managing projects. Hammes works with facilities, design and construction leaders to evaluate resources, capital demand and reporting structure so the PMO is aligned with the system’s project pipeline.

PMO Consulting
Operational Readiness & Transition Planning

Hammes' Operational Readiness team develops and manages an informed work plan for activation activities and departmental tasks, including staffing and training, revenue cycle and billing, regulatory and accreditation, emergency preparedness, operational practice, and contract and licensure tracking.
